[PATCH] [dm]fix NULL pointer in dm_exception_store_create() when create dm device
From: DingXiang
Date: Mon Feb 01 2016 - 02:02:37 EST
In some conditions(such as umount fs failed),origin path or origin bdev or both of the two is same
as cow's.If this happens, origin dev will be freed when get cow dev in function "dm_get_device" ,
then "s->origin->dev" which used by "dm_exception_store_create" will be a NULL pointer.
